The state of support platforms in Iraq:
Patreon is blocked, Kofi doesn't load, Paypal, Buy me a coffee and Vgen doesn't let you create an account.
This also applies to all the others. I know of many artists that are crushed by the state of how things are, and we simply cannot do anything about it.

A one-page pixelart manga story. The first panel shows a spaceship floating in space, with a huge, shiny black hole appearing in the background.
The second panel shows the spaceship's cockpit with the huge black hole visible through the window.
The third panel shows the exterior of the ship with the message: LOCKDOWN PROTOCOL INITIATED.
The fourth panel is some sort of an airlock chamber with the text: INTRUDER ALERT!
The fifth panel shows the ship's pilot wearing a masked helmet, the pilot says: INTRUDER? THIS FAR OFF INTO DARK SPACE?
The sixth and seventh panels show a wide shot of the front of the ship, the alarm repeats: INTRUDER ALERT!
The last panel shows a kitten wearing a space suit climbing over the hull's ledge with a silly face.

It is set in the far future and tells the story of a ships's AI embodiment which seeks revenge on the corrupted empire that controls humanity across space, for the destruction of her ship. The vastness of the world and the narrative that get told through the AI's mind is what makes it one of best.

I love Murderbot!
Yeah the TV show helmet design is cool, so I've decided to make it as an alt cover for the book.
